Chapter 242: Talent Backlash
When Jiang Yun fell, his grandfather acted quickly, wrapping him in a blanket of snow and asked, "Are you okay, dear?"
Jiang Yun shook his head and said, "I’m fine, just exerted myself a bit too much, hurting my wound."
Grandfather looked worried and said, "If you’re not feeling well, don’t push yourself. Stay a few more days to rest."
Jiang Yun smiled and replied, "Don’t worry, once I reach Heavenly Pill City, I’ll find a place to rest properly."
Grandfather nodded silently without saying anything else.
He believed Jiang Yun was telling the truth.
After Jiang Yun passed out, grandfather personally checked his wound. It was so serious that if it were someone else, they might have passed away.
Jiang Yun had a strong power within him that helped him heal continuously, saving his life.
It had only been three days, and even with his strong power, Jiang Yun’s wound couldn’t completely heal yet.
Now Jiang Yun flew up, needing to use his inner energy, accidentally aggravating his injury, which is a very common phenomenon.
But his grandfather didn’t know. As Jiang Yun turned around again, his smile instantly disappeared, replaced by a serious expression on his face.
The intense pain just now did not come from any injury, but from his left eye, from a talent backlash!
To prevent his grandfather and Snow clan from worrying about him and feeling more guilty, Jiang Yun deliberately lied.
Although Jiang Yun was somewhat prepared for the talent backlash, he still held onto a glimmer of hope, thinking that maybe it wouldn’t happen.
But he never expected that the talent backlash not only occurred but happened so quickly!
In just three days, the talent of the Sea clan within his left eye began to backlash!
Even though he understood what was happening, Jiang Yun had no way to stop the talent backlash.
Refining talents is neither a spell nor a technique, but a unique skill of a Demon Refiner, even created by Master Lu.
There are many ways to find a solution.
The best way is to go back to the Demon’s Tao Conferment Bamboo Slip and find Taoist DemonHun Tian. Perhaps he will know how to solve it.
Another way is to find Lu Xiaoyu’s grandfather. Maybe he knows too.
After all, Master Lu is their ancestor, and he probably passed down the Demon Refining Seal to them.
If all else fails, go to your teacher or Senior Brother.
You could even try asking your grandfather.
Grandfather is a knowledgeable being, second only to Taoist Demon. He might also know a solution.
Thinking of this, Jiang Yun felt a bit more at ease. The backlash from his talent was only a momentary pain, and now he is back to normal, so he decided to put it out of his mind for now.
Everything will have to wait until after Snow clan leaves!
。。。
Under the dark night sky and the falling white snow, Jiang Yun and Xue Qing walked side by side without saying a word.
Jiang Yun didn’t know why Xue Qing was quiet, but he himself had no idea what to say.
After flying silently for a while, Xue Qing suddenly stopped, turned around, and looked at Jiang Yun intently.
Then, something appeared in Xue Qing’s hand and she directly put it into Jiang Yun’s hand!
This sudden scene left Jiang Yun completely puzzled. As he opened his palm, he found a necklace lying there.
The necklace had a blue stone that looked like a droplet embedded on a snowy white base.
Even in the dark night, the stone emitted a faint glow, shining brightly.
It wasn’t until this moment that Jiang Yun regained his senses and quickly said, "Miss Xue, this is…"
Xue Qing lowered her head, a blush on her face, and softly said, "This isn’t something valuable, just consider it as a personal thank-you gift from me to you for helping my Snow clan!"
"No need!" Jiang Yun shook his head and handed back the necklace, saying, "Senior Xue and Grandfather have already given me too many gifts."
However, Xue Qing’s expression instantly turned cold, saying, "If you don’t want it, then just throw it away!"
"Um…"
Jiang Yun’s outstretched arm froze in midair, a hint of a wry smile on his face.
Despite his intelligence, his knowledge about the opposite sex was close to zero, so he simply couldn’t understand Xue Qing’s current thoughts.
However, he couldn’t bring himself to throw away the necklace, so he reluctantly accepted it, saying, "Well, then I’ll keep it. But I don’t have anything to give to Miss Xue."
"No need!" Hearing that Jiang Yun was willing to accept the necklace, Xue Qing’s expression softened, saying, "You’ve already given something."
Jiang Yun naturally understood that Xue Qing was referring to the TianJing Pill he had refined, scratching his head and saying, "That was my way of thanking you for the formation stone."
"Miss Xue, do you have any wishes? Please tell me. If I can help, I will make them come true."
Jiang Yun didn’t want to accept help for no reason. He said this because he thought about Xue Qing’s background and the sadness in her eyes when she looked at the sea.
When Xue Qing left, it was unlikely for her to come back, but her parents might still be in the Mountain-Sea World. If he met them in the future, he could pass a message to her.
After a brief pause, Xue Qing said, "I want to see the sea again, and hear the sound of the waves. Can you accompany me?"
"Of course!"
So, the two turned towards the sea and flew there.
Although the snow cliff was no longer there, the sea was still the same as before, with waves crashing. The two stood in the air, silently watching and listening to the sea, once again falling into silence.
After a moment, Xue Qing spoke first, "Thank you! I should leave now."
"Yes, I should take my leave too!"
Xue Qing looked at Jiang Yun with a displeased look, then turned and walked away without saying a word, leaving Jiang Yun puzzled.
Just as Xue Qing was about to disappear, he spoke again, "Miss Xue, do you really have no wishes left?"
Amidst the swirling snow, Xue Qing’s voice faintly reached them, "I wish to see the clear sky again! Take care!"
As the words fell, Xue Qing’s voice returned to Li FireSnow Palace above.
At the same time, the entire Li FireSnow Palace suddenly shook violently.
Especially the countless Li Fire surrounding the Snow Palace, surged up and down madly, appearing as if they wanted to burn the Snow Palace to ashes.
Jiang Yun knew this was a sign that the teleportation array had been activated.
Clearly, the Snow clan was also ready to leave the Mountain-Sea World and prepare to depart immediately.
"Buzz!"
Jiang Yun jumped up into the sky, getting closer to Li FireSnow Palace, so close that he could see all the Snow clan people on top of Snow Palace.
At this moment, all the Snow clan people had stood up, each one approaching the edge of the top, constantly looking around at the snow-covered ground and the sky sprinkled with falling snow.
Everyone’s face showed deep sadness and reluctance.
It’s hard to leave one’s homeland.
But now, they had to leave their homeland, the place where their clan had lived for thousands of years, leaving behind their countless memories!
Gradually, tears fell from the eyes of every Snow clan person.
Watching this scene, Jiang Yun’s heart was deeply moved.
In his mind, a string was quietly touched, making him vaguely think of something, but for the moment, he couldn’t grasp it.
Until, in the crowd, he saw Xue Qing, who was silently watching him as well!
